Zaftigs Delicatessen Natick

Great food at good prices and good service. My girlfriend & I come here occasionally, but when we do it's always worth the effort.

Nov 2025 update: I've eaten here with company countless times by now. Also my girlfriend is now my wife... and we still try to come here whenever we are in the area lol

Today has been my first time going to this restaurant in a couple of years. I don't know what has happened but saying the food has gone downhill might be giving them an upgrade. The chopped liver is a dark brown like dark dark brown I've never seen chopped liver this color before. Definitely not a Jewish recipe. The saltiest on tasting chopped liver I have ever tried in my life. It is no longer Jewish food in there. There is not a Jew out there that would make that chop liver for any holiday taste like this. And the Reuben. The meat is like rubber I have to not just bite down but have to use my fingers to rip it apart I can't even finish the sandwich like this I now have to use a rigid knife and fork. I could have sworn there was Russian dressing That was supposed to come on here. When I saw the sandwich it looked dry as hell so I asked for extra dressing and tell me why when I got home and opened up my bag I have a white little cup that looks and tastes like tartar sauce. If you have ever been to this restaurant in the past before it was sold off you remember what the food was like. You shouldn't go back you're going to be disappointed. My feelings are a little bit hurt. My cholesterol is going to be crying because it's chopped liver and my jaw hurts from taking two bites out of this dry sandwich. I would never recommend this restaurant. And if you know the previous owner is that they are still around send them in to go see what has happened. Tell them to order the chopped liver and a Reuben

The waitress never came by for coffee refills. We ordered pancakes, and they give you hardly any syrup, and since the waitress didn't check on us, but once, by the time we could ask for more, it was too late. Food was OK, but not exceptional, especially for the prices. However they did give good portions. I most likely would not go back.

The Apple Cheddar omelette was a very pleasant surprise. The homefries were some of the best I have ever had (and I don't normally care for them)
The art on the walls was a nice touch, too.

Nice brunch spot for a Sunday afternoon. I got the Lenox Omelet which was flavorful and rich. Also, got the grilled banana bread. All very yummy.

Pricey but really good so I think it's worth it! 2 sandwiches with no drinks came to about $50 with tip.

Wife and I went here as we had a good experience when this was Joan &Eds. However we arrived around 2pm today and waited to be seated as instructed by the sign. At least 5 (FIVE) employees looked our way. Not one person said anything just looked away again. We waited for several minutes but gave up and left. They probably don’t realize how much business they lose.

Very fresh and delicious as always. So nice to be back in the area and dine here again!!
